The complexity of color is often overlooked by photographers. Most understand the basic concepts of how to adjust color during postproduction, but they don’t often consider the effects the colors in a photo have on one another or how they impact the look and feel of their images.

This is a special two-session version of this class that adds additional content previous attendees requested. It will take you deep into the world of color for an exploration of the technical aspects of color, as well as the emotional impact color can have in a photo. After this class you will never look at color the same, in your photos or the world around you.
